Chapter 281: Crisis in Cloud Town
When the three of them arrived at the mouth of the cave, they immediately saw that the mouth of the cave had been sealed by a huge layer of azure water, and all the attacks of the beasts on it only caused it to create a circle of ripples.
"What is this?" Mina controlled the clone to fly a little closer to himself, and found that the durability of this water film actually reached an astonishing 100,000, and the low-level beasts below didn't even have the ability to break through the defense.
System: You have discovered the Cloud Mountains, a place where the divine light has not reached, and the will of light will no longer be able to notice your presence.
And when Mina approached the water film, he received a systematic message, which appeared very suddenly, but when Mina read this message, he immediately knew that he was now free from the tracking of the Dark Dragon Guild.
After all, for players, the system will not remind players of these things, and only players like Mina, who have intersected with the God of Light, will activate the relevant settings, but he didn't expect that he would find a safe place so quickly.
"This is the Azure Guardian, the strongest defense to protect the four entrances of the Cloud and Mist Mountains, but this magic mechanism will only be activated when it is most dangerous, could it be that something happened inside?" Miyuki looked at this azure water film a little confused, she really couldn't imagine that something would happen in this such a secluded cloud and misty mountainous area, and her face was full of anxiety and nervousness.
Seeing Miyuki's expression, Mina also knew that now was not the time to study such an inconsequential issue as the Will of Light.
"So, is there any other way to get into the Cloud Mountains?" Mina glanced at the situation of the Demon Wings, and it could still last for a few minutes, but the mountains here were all cliffs, and there was no safe place for them to dock, and they had to find other ways to enter the interior of the Cloud Mountains as soon as possible.
"No, there are only 4 caves like this for us to enter, but now there are blue guards here, and other places will be ......"
"Let's take a look first, if it doesn't work then, we'll figure it out." Mina didn't let Miyuki say it again, Miyuki is a little distracted now, if she is asked to continue talking, I'm afraid she will be broken by what she imagined first.
I saw that Mina directly flapped his wings and began to fly around the periphery of this cloudy mountainous area. And with Mina's flight, now he and Xiaoyue's player map has also begun to continuously sweep away the black fog above, showing the outermost terrain of the Cloud Mountain Mountain little by little.
It's just that when Mina flew for ten minutes, he still didn't reach the entrance to the other cave that Miyuki said, but he found a cave on a cliff, so that Mina could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
After resting for a few minutes, Mina activated the Demon Wings again and flew around again with the second daughter. This time, the trio had finally found a second entrance, only now that there was a fierce battle.
Several human mages were defending with a few rock-made fortified strongholds at the entrance, but the azure guardians here should have been broken, and every now and then one or two beasts would slip through the net and rush into the entrance, running towards the depths of the cave.
In front of the stronghold, dozens of huge rocks were scattered, forming more than a dozen paths for humans or beasts. And it is these dozen or so trails that block the tide of beasts outside, and all the beasts that want to pass have to follow these roads.
"It's the second grandfather, ah, he's injured, benefactor ......" As soon as Miyuki saw the blood on the body of the elderly mage guarding one of the strongholds, she immediately wanted to go down, if it weren't for Mina's quick reaction and grabbing her clothes, I'm afraid Miyuki would have to fall into the beast tide below.
The old mage visibly heard Miyuki's exclamations and struggled to raise his head.
Naturally, Mina would not sit idly by, only to see the demon wings behind him fanning wildly, with a gust of wind towards the nearest stronghold.
And as soon as Mina and the others landed, all of them entered the preparation for battle, whether it was magic or arrows, all of them hit the beast tide below.
And as soon as those water mages who had stayed here saw that these people were brought back by Miyuki, they immediately put away their vigilance and seriously dealt with the beasts below.
"Second grandpa, are you okay! Benefactor, please save the second grandfather! Miyuki quickly ran to the innermost stronghold with the help of the chain bridges in each stronghold to visit the injured old mage.
As soon as Miyuki saw the clear and bright red blood stains on her second grandfather's chest, her little face turned pale, and tears fell like rain.
"Ahem, why are you coming back at this time! Now get me out of here, cough, cough ......" The old mage glanced at Miyuki, who was obviously frightened, and was about to kick him out, now that Cloudtown was facing a crisis, he didn't want this cute little girl to die because of this.
"It's okay, what about me?" Mina also heard Miyuki's nervous words, and used a phantom to sneak directly from the front stronghold and jumped over.
The stronghold here is clearly a former establishment, and the chain bridges above it are already covered with rust. And these colonies are quite simple, basically just magically cut a platform and some guardrails directly into the rock, but this is very suitable for a ranged class like mage. It's just that the mages who stay here now are all water mages, and their attack power is very limited. In terms of lethality alone, I'm afraid that all the mages here combined are not as tall as the clone at the front.
If it weren't for the fact that someone had piled up these cut boulders in front of the stronghold, forming those narrow paths, so that the huge beast tide could not exert its most powerful collective collision ability, I am afraid that if the beast tide squirmed at that time, this place would have to be completely lost.
As soon as Mina saw this elderly mage, he immediately activated the light of life, as long as the person has not died, the light of life can definitely cure it, but for NPCs, the effect may not be as efficient as that of the player.
And when the light of life was finished, the second grandfather's complexion began to turn from pale to bloody, but he was still a little weak, and although his life was not in danger now, he had no way to fight anymore.
"It's pure life energy." The second grandfather glanced at Shui Nai, and stood up with the staff and crutches in his hand a little tremblingly.
"Well, I'll go over and help first!" Mina enters the Phantom Sneak again, arrives at Akatsuki's side, and begins to stop the beast below with all her might.
It's just that as time goes by, Mina is becoming more and more interested in the people who set up this base.
For this simple stronghold, Mina's first impression was that it was very simple, if it weren't for the obvious traces of artificial cutting on these rocks, plus the mage left behind, I'm afraid no one would believe that this kind of primitive stronghold with only one foundation would be a stronghold.
And now, Mina has learned that there are millions of beast tides outside, and even if they are divided into four, then each entrance will have hundreds of thousands. But here, Mina can only see a few dozen beasts at most. And the only thing you have to deal with each time is these dozens of beasts, which are neither too tenacious nor too easy to deal with, and the number is very moderate.
Moreover, the rock formation outside has completely integrated the concept of flood control of "it is better to be sparse than blocked". In this situation of a tide of wild beasts, if you blindly block it with a closed rock formation, I am afraid that the number of wild beasts outside will increase, and eventually the wild beasts will be trampled. Then this rock formation, which cannot be closed even above the head, will lose its original meaning.
"Looks like the beast's attack is coming to an end." Xiaoyue, who was as careful as dust, immediately noticed that the number of beasts in front of her was greatly reduced, and when it came to the back, the beasts simply disappeared.
And when Mina came down from the sky, it also confirmed Xiaoyue's guess, and the attack of the beast tide outside was over.
"Phew, I've finally secured this entrance today." Seeing this, the second grandfather finally calmed down, and then fell into Miyuki's arms and fell into a deep sleep, and the mages around him were no better. With the huge consumption of magic and mental power, he has long been tired. Now as soon as he knew that the attack of the beast tide was over, he was immediately defeated by the exhaustion in his body.
Seeing this, Shui Nai and Xiaoyue also knew that their situation was safe now, and they could go offline with peace of mind.
